[Bro!?] That was the hesitant, unwilling voice of Linus.
Alvin has changed and become a bit vocal with Anya. But he was still the same with others. As soon as he heard Linus's voice, he involuntarily wanted to ask Linus to leave the job, more like command Linus to quit the job.
However, Anya's words that she had growled at him a long time ago rang in his mind. 'What is right for you doesn't have to be right for everyone.'
Thus he was sensible to know, that controlling or commanding could be worse he could do for Linus who was going through his first breakup or maybe a heartbreak.
Hearing no voice, Linus's voice sounded with a bit of concern, "Bro, is everything alright?"
Alvin grimaced to himself. He always took care of Linus's possible trouble, solved his problem, or helped him silently without the need to be asked or reported.
You all know the surprise, don't you?
